Who is Angelyne? For the citizens of Los Angeles, she’s just a mysterious woman who appears on several billboards in the city. However, the real person behind those billboards is a bit more complicated. Emmy Rossum (Shameless) stars as this real-life woman in this five-part series on Peacock. She plays Angelyne as a woman who wants to be famous and finally achieved that goal, at least in LA, with these billboards in the mid-1980s. But is there more to this woman than meets the eye? Academy Award winners J. K. Simmons and Sissy Spacek star in this Amazon Prime Video original series. They play an older couple in a small town with a secret: in their backyard, there’s a chamber that takes them instantly to another world in another part of the universe. Things get more complicated when the couple discovers a young man that shows up in their chamber. Who or what is he, and what does he want? The Emmy award-winning sci-fi animation anthology series returns for its third season on Netflix. This time we get nine short subjects that have stories ranging from three robots checking out humanity’s last days to a special forces team that has to resort to a different kind of weapon to defeat a killer cyborg. As with the previous two seasons, the shorts in season three all have different types of art and animation styles, from 2D to full 3D CGI and more.
